Description
This is a pretty simple mod that allows you to open the Monitoring Stand anywhere. More specifically, you can use the Fixed Assignment Management and Set Work Preferences anywhere. Set Work Mode didn't seem like an option that is used very often so I left it out, if it is requested I can add it though.
How To Use
Just press the appropriate hotkey (two separate hotkeys for the two menus) and the menu will open. You can use it as normal and close it when you're done. When using it outside of your base, it will grab the Monitoring Stand from the closest base to your current position. Requires Monitoring Stand to be built.
The default hotkeys are F2 for Fixed Assignment Management and F3 for Set Work Preferences. These can be changed using Mod Config Menu
Dedicated Servers: press INS key (insert) for the mod to work. It only needs to be installed on the client.
Options
All options are accessible from the Mod Config Menu.
- Toggle whether Monitoring Stand can only be opened while inside a base

How It Works
For those interested, I came up with a pretty neat workaround for opening UI since I couldn't quite figure out how to do it by normal means. All interact-able objects have an object attached to them that waits for a player to get near it before showing the in-world UI so you can press a key to open whichever menu from that object (Opening the Palbox with F for example). I found a function that executes the interact process, so I thought what if I just move the object that needs to have a player near it straight to the player themself? Then I can just launch the function to interact with the appropriate option and bam, we have remote buildings! This should theoretically work with any building that has a UI that can be opened, and I have made another mod that does this for the Palbox.
